How wonderful that you, Christine, and your new son can all enjoy your first summer together. Fun to watch you plant the pear tree, and some Salvia, as well as your other plants in the garden boxes. Enjoy yourselves! ❤👨‍👩‍👦🌱🌿🥀

[@KalleFlodin]

Happy you enjoyed it 🥰 Thank you for watching ❤

[@anettemurdoch2803]

The little tree needs 2 sticks, each 30 cm away from the tree. The two sticks ensure that the tree moves only slightly, even in windy conditions. This allows the fine fibre roots to anchor themselves better in the ground. If the tree swings back and forth at the top, the fibre roots tear off again and again. Just one stick is not enough, because then the tree moves "like a tail on a dog". The tree needs the sticks for 2 years! I would also protect the tree from animals with wire mesh.

[@juanitachristner5009]

That's good to know.

[@maikvanlommel7573]

Also, the green bands should be removed, it is strangling the tree.

[@ruthcampos2942]

Good advice! I left a band on my apple tree for too long. It didn't kill it, but the whole top of the tree snapped off at the band and had to start over from there.​@@maikvanlommel7573

Pear Trees symbolize longevity, love, and prosperity. It's quite beautiful that the tree has been planted now at the time of your son's birth. Sending your family lots of blessings Xx

[@Rillanillaa]

A tip for your garden from a fellow gardener!🍀 The strawberries may be eaten by the birds before you and Chrisitine get your hands on them, so a net over them ensures you will get to enjoy them yourself 😊 I know its not the prettiest thing but it works. Congratulations for your baby and all the luck and sun and joy for this summer for your family!!❤❤

My Swedish dad loved to fish by himself! My mom said my dad fished in every creek and river in Washington state, Oregon and Idaho in the NW part of United States! He loved going out on the Pacific Ocean to catch salmon too! One day dad left trout in the kitchen sink, went back out to catch more! My mom woke up to the sound of trout flopping in the kitchen!

[@livmaria942]

Hearty congratulations on your lovely boy.👶❤ I just want to give good advice as a zone therapist. Try massaging his feet a couple of times a day, gently nudge the toes and the whole foot. If he finds it difficult to calm down and perhaps recovers from stomach cramps, give his big toe a lot of massage as well as under the middle of the foot. It has helped a lot of babies, I had a colicky baby a girl who cried constantly and it helped after a few days. So I always advise new parents to get into a routine of massaging the feet for all our zones until our chakra goes through the body. It is a fantastically effective method. Good luck with the baby and enjoy the whole summer. Looks lovely with you.. Hugs Maria Denmark🙏❤👶

Loved this nature infused video showcasing all of your outdoor activities and adventures. The birdhouses, the frog party, the gardening, etc. So inspiring. I really should get out into my own yard and get some projects done, rather than watching you guys do yours, lol, but your yard is so much prettier and peaceful than mine 🙂. Great to see Christine's smiling face--she looks radiant. And great to get those little glimpses of the little one. So precious. Such a peaceful environment to be raising a family. I imagine it must make the new baby exhaustion a bit easier to handle. Looking forward to seeing that pear tree grow!

Congratulations!! Christine and Kalle on the birth of your son and what is the name of your son? have a lovely day.

[@bamereg]

Kalle, here's a plant welfare tip for your strawberries and any other plant you may plant in the future: water the soil, not the plant. Not many plants thrive with too much water on them. They need the soil to contain water, not their outsides.

[@Sunbeammicrogreens]

Congratulations on your new beautiful child!

[@None979]

Kalle, I loved seeing you do self care by going for a hike and fishing! It is so important as a parent to schedule time in to do what refreshes your soul💙 Thanks for showing us your beautiful country. You have worked so hard to provide a beautiful home for your family so I hope you feel proud of yourself. Christine is so lovely and those little baby toes made me smile. 😍

[@mariettehamel12358]

Is it the sound of your nrew spring that sprouted from you "problematic" well?!?!?! seems there is a lot of water! WOW what a beautiful spot the "well Kalle" suggested to you... you will definitively LOVE it! I like that while respecting your need of privacy with your child, that you still give us a "hint" of his presence... A goo middle way solution to satisfy your family and us at the same time! Thanks 🙏💖💫

[@juliaodonovan]

I completely relate to what you said about getting manic and hyper-focusing. Having to make a decision like planting a tree can almost make a dense fog descend on my mind that is both physically and mentally straining, causing me to postpone action. I wonder if it feels like that for you as well 🤔 I had a few laughs when you two were working in the garden (or as Christine said, being able to just watch you work) 😄 It's gonna be so cool when all the flowers start blooming along the cabin! 🌻 Lots of love to you and the family!

[@marionbartley214]

Hello Kalle, great video today. I enjoyed watching you and Christine go to the nursery for the plants. And then coming home and planting them, in your garden. Along with your peach tree.The area where the waterfall is, it's beautiful, But I agree the current looks too strong to go into at this time. Probably a lot of runoff from the snow. The weather in Sweden looks nice at this time of the year, spring has definitely come. Looking forward to your next video.

[@georgewhitehouse8630]

More important than the spacing is the root ball

[@marvinjenson2812]

I wanted to suggest to you a way to make your cabin warmer. If you build walls against the logs and put insulating material in the new walls and then cover them with wood or gypsum board it will make your home much warmer. I love your content my family came from central Sweden to America

[@araonna]

as someone who built a number of houses, sorry, but it's a bad idea. Log homes need to breathe, or they will start molding and then rot quickly.

❤ When handling trout, wet your hands and use a rubber net to keep them in the water. Doing so retains the protective slime for long-term health. Next time you’re watching trout videos on KZbin, check the comments. Viewers will be sure to remind the angler to wet their hands if poor handling is apparent.

[@frauvonduh7521]

I love the composition of your videos! The pictures, the sounds and the gentle music here and there, it is pure joy to watch. And Christine, we women tend to do too much, too soon after giving birth, I wished I had slowed down much more. Wishing you all the best time and much sleep through the nights. If you have questions about gardening, tell me, I am very passionate about it ☺️

[@judyhamilton9123]

Kallle I understand the way your brain works! You have accomplished much! No embarrassment- understanding oneself is awesome. Be proud 👏🏾

[@katariinag8463]

Hey Kalle, I just started your video and want to say that usually those types of baby seats are not safe for the baby to spend a lot of time in it. Only for car rides. The reason is the posture and the breathing. Maybe you have a different kind of seat then what I think, I hope I don't make you feel bad with my comment❤ I used to work with small children and in Germany even some hospitals give warnings to new parents to not let their baby sit in those seats for too long. I love your work and congratulations ❤🎉 PS. If your baby is crying a lot an Osteopat could help him. Especially after a long and/or difficult birth process. I know many babys that calmed down with the crying with the help of osteopats❤

[@Sunnbuzz]

I can relate a lot to some of the things you said; I understood your need to line up the strawberries perfectly and not just "stick them in the ground" " and the fact it took 2 years to find the perfect spot to plant the tree made sense to me. My life is a constant search for the perfect place or perfect thing, that sadly no one else will ever notice or think about but me, and if I cannot get it "just right" or perfect then I become overwhelmed and nothing gets done, there is no middle ground for me

[@sonjawld6464]

It's so fascinating, how fast seasons change. Everything looks so pretty now. And I actually can totally relate of having these inner dialogues and the issue with finding the right spot for the pear tree. I think the tree needs a pretty name though 😄. All the best for your wonderful family ☺

I am so happy for you living in a beautiful spot , you have now started your family your precious little boy. The birds singing , frogs singing their tune, just simply wonderful spot your son is going to love the nature. Lovely video I enjoyed it very much. I must say when you went to that spot to swim I am thinking up further where it was calm. I thought surely you are not going in down there, even if the water wasn’t as high that was no place to go in swimming, too many rocks. The pressure is over you have a healthy darling little boy all is well with the family, isn’t that a wonderful blessing. Thank you for sharing.

Lovely to see you, Christine, and your son in the garden today. I so relate with the "I want to measure, but I want to be the kind of relaxed person that doesn't." The bird houses are beautiful.
